"I've used Protax Consulting services for years now, always highly satisfied with Marc's work. My tax filings and advice requests were always taken care of in timely manner and most importantly, Marc always made sure all potential deductions were discussed and considered. As a non-US resident, I wanted a specialist and not just another ordinary tax firm, and this is what you get with Protax. I would highly recommend Marc to anybody looking for outside-the-box thinking, reliable, personable and always reachable accounting firm, even if you don't fall into the "several million dollar bonus" category. I would especially recommend Marc to anybody dealing with non-US status, non-US income, non-standard deductions and other unordinary tax situations as he proved (year after year) to be a great service provider!"

"As this will be my last filing for the foreseeable future in the United Slates I wanted to write and express my thanks to you and your associates.

Protax has provided me with sound advice and fine service for the seven years that I have used them. My time in the United Slates was made much simpler through your efforts. I would recommend your firm to any person expatriate or otherwise who reqUires taxation related services.

I wish you all the best in the future."

Best regards,

"Many thanks for handling my tax issues relating to New York State. Frankly, I was extremely impressed by how a few calls you made to the state translated into a quick and positive response to my claimed refund. I have been trying to deal with them on my own for 3 months without any success. You, on the other hand, were able to turn it around within 48 hours.

Also, I would like to thank you very much for your professionalism in returning all my calls and being pro-active with both my federal and state tax affairs. No accountant in the past has ever been as pro-active and aware as you have been. You make me feel like I'm the only client in the world.

You have completely earned my enthusiastic trust. I would not have referred my own brother and girlfriend to you otherwise."

Warm regards,
Sam Victor Tabar

"I had my taxes prepared by Protax Consulting for two years. During that time, Marc clearly illustrated a comprehensive knowledge of tax for non-resident aliens. Seeking greener pastures, I tried another consultant for a year and I was horribly disappointed because the level of service I came to expect (and subsequently appreciate) was no longer there. Having Marc available whenever you need him and his quick responses to emails leaves the quality of service unmatched. The feeling you get when you leave Protax is that your returns are accurate, on time and receive the attention that they deserve (big or small). If you are searching for a quality consultant with tremendous service, I strongly recommend Marc at Protax."

"I have known Marc for almost 4 years and was introduced to him by someone who has known him for many more years. My wife Marie and I approached Marc to do our taxes when we first moved down to the US from Montreal, Canada. Needless to say he seemed from the outset to have a very high degree of knowledge when it came to preparing our US tax returns, never mind the fact that it seemed to have been more complicated by the fact that my spouse was a nonresident alien or foreign national. Marc took these special elections that allowed us to file married filing joint (apparently you cannot do that if one of the spouses is not a citizen or green card holder) and saved us a substantial sum of money. Later, when I asked other CPA's about the special elections that Marc took for us, they were completely unaware of the possibilities.

Marc took the time necessary to sit down with my wife and I to explain our tax situation, he offered us good tax advice and ways we could minimize our taxes in the future. He always delivered our work in a timely fashion, was very courteous and super patient with us.

It, therefore, goes without saying that we would unequivocally recommend Marc Strohl to any taxpayer individuals or corporations who are looking for competent professional tax expertise."

"Marc at Protax has guided me through some very complex federal and state cross border tax issues and has gone out of his way to ensure that my refunds were maximized. I would recommend Marc and Protax to anyone seeking skill, service and professional courtesy."

"Marc has proven to be an incredibly valuable asset to me when doing my taxes and advising me on managing my personal finances. As a Canadian citizen who recently moved to New York, and who is now employed full time here, I really had no idea what was involved in filing in the U.S. or in Canada for that matter. Marc was patient and helpful and took time to explain the intricacies of the process to me. He was also very efficient and he managed to get me a healthy return fast. From the first time I went to Marc, it was obvious that he’s the type of professional who truly cares about his clients. And even more importantly, he has a good, practical, working knowledge of his field."

"Unfortunately, Marc Strohl was not the first accountant that I approached for help filling my first 3 US tax returns. When I moved to New York on a TN Visa, a friend recommended that I use this "great" New York accountant for my tax returns. The one thing this "great" accountant failed to mention was that he had no expertise in dealing with the various intricate Federal, State and Local tax rules as they apply to non-permanent residents. Only last year, when another friend introduced me to Marc, did I realize how much I had overpaid in taxes over the last 3 years (not to mention the amount of money I paid for wrong advice from my "great" accountant). Luckily, Marc was able help me file amended tax returns so that I could get that money back with interest. Unlike that other "great" accountant, Marc took the time to explain and work with me on collecting all of the back up information I would need to re-file my tax returns. Having dealt with other accountants in both Canada and the US, I can honestly say that Marc Strohl is an amazing accountant with both an excellent technical knowledge and the ability make clients understand even the most complex parts of the tax code."
